When the Balls Drop: How I Learned to Get Real and Embrace

When the Balls Drop: How I Learned to Get Real and Embrace Life's Second Half

A refreshingly candid and wickedly funny look at lifeâ€™s second half from Everybody Loves Raymond TV sitcom star and three-time Emmy Awardâ€“winning comic Brad Garrett.

In this no-holds-barred book of comedic and personal essays, Brad Garrett divulges his hilariousâ€”and irreverently honestâ€”experiences with the many challenges and ultimately joys of middle age, as he advises us on how to best navigate the dreaded â€œsecond halfâ€ of life.

Ranging in topics from genetics to genitals, sex to stereotypes, and alimony to addiction, Brad leaves no stone unturned in this raw, laugh-out-loud look at getting older. With pieces such as â€œNo Scales in Heaven,â€ in which Brad points out the essential pointlessness of overthinking diet and exercise, and â€œCelebrating Your E.D. (erectile dysfunction) During Your Mid-Life Crisis,â€ the star comedian encourages you to forget the overwhelming concerns that accompany middle age and to welcome the laughsâ€”even if you throw your back out doing it.

Penned in the blunt, conversational, no-nonsense style that has cemented Bradâ€™s status as an icon in the comedy industry, this autobiographical book will help you accept that, no matter what, we all get old. So you might as well embrace it.
